Mine was pretty good… at work I got to work on a creative poster project, and I am pretty pleased with how it came out. Of course, I need time to “clean the palette” and then have a fresh look at it so I can make adjustments, but I think the design is solid. 😄

On the home front, Bay requested Jambalaya so Mariko made a delicious version of the dish. She used the boxed mix and added some veggies, sausage, shrimp, and a yummy cream sauce (which I am pretty sure isn’t traditional)! We all enjoyed it! 🍴

Mariko’s home-cooking was greatly missed by me while she was in Japan, and I am so happy to be eating like a king again. 👑 Already we’ve enjoyed Japanese curry, and now Jambalaya. The side dishes are wonderful as well – fresh salad, potato salad, lotus, marinated tomatoes, etc. I’m gaining weight again! And happily. 😊

10nineteen,

First, arrigato, gozaimas, thank you so much for visiting my blog. I truly appreciate your support. I like your blog immensely. I look forward to hearing from you. While I’m American, my wife is Japanese and works as a translator here in North Alabama. Her mother lives in Osaka and we are headed that way in November. I love Japan. It is so far as I’m concerned the most wonderful country on this planet! I’m very very slowly trying to learn Japanese…a looooooong way to go. 🙂
